How I did it
How to vote
It took me
7 years
It made me
accomplished

How I did it: Well, first of all I had to get my citizenship. Then I had to do mounds of research in order to figure out who to vote for [GO BOB BARR!!!]. Then I had to drive to a polling place, around 1 pm, right after the lunch break. The place was empty, some nice old ladies gave me a ballot, I filled it out with PRIDE and....there it was.

How to organize my craft supplies
It took me
3 days
It made me

How I did it: Not sure if this counts as "organizing." I sat down, breathed a sigh of disappointment and nostalgia, and gave away all of the craft supplies that deep down I knew I wasn't going to use. I've stopped crocheting and knitting, so I gave away all of my yarn. I put the scrapbooking stuff away in see-through totes so that I would know where everything was. Read how I did it…

quit drinking
ROWR 11 months ago

I’m quitting. Cold turkey. Right now. No AA meetings, no support groups, and no guilt regarding an occasional slip-up. But I will stop getting drunk every night and channel my energy into positively cliche activities.

list three things every day that made me happy (read all 71 entries…)
Sunday, November 30, 2008 11 months ago

1. Finished reading “Death in the Pot” about food poisoning throughout history.
2. Watching The L Word – silly yet so addicting.
3. Playing with my bunny. He’s so cute!

deal with my mental issues and come out on top (read all 5 entries…)
Untitled 12 months ago

This goal is far from being complete. I had a nervous breakdown a little over a month ago, probably brought on by sleep deprivation and stress. Since then I’ve quit my full-time job, abandoned one of my classes, and been drinking and chain-smoking like crazy. I am trying to make it better though, I have a psych appointment next week, and I will try to make it (unlike the one I had a few weeks ago that I totally blew off because I was feeling absolutely terrible). I feel like everything has fallen apart. Things just accumulate and everything is a disaster. And I sound so terribly cliche.
